While stealing personal information doesn’t seem to have been at play, this is a critical concern for the entire financial services industry.

The bland name hides the lethal intent of DDoS when aimed at financial institutions, an event that has become increasingly common as dozens of large banks have recently found their online operations crippled, sometimes for days by highly skilled cyber-attackers.
